A beam is supported by a hinged joint at one end (O) and by a spring at the other end (A) as shown in the figure. The stiffness of the spring is such that the beam end A lies directly under the spring attachment point B when the spring is at its free length (no force). Using Hamilton's principle, develop the Euler-Lagrange equation of motion for the system when subjected to 1. A time-dependent vertical force applied at end A of the beam. 2. A time dependent force at end A of the beam that remains oriented perpendicular to the beam for all angles of the beam. Assume the following for your analysis 1. The beam is rigid. 2. The beam is uniform, i.e. its mass per unit length is constant) 3. The thickness of the beam is small compared to its length 4. The spring stiffness is constant. 5. The spring mass is small and can be ignored. 6. The angular displacements of the beam are not necessarily small. D F(t) F(t)

In a nutshell, a smaller rock is propelled into the air as a huge counterweight in the back falls down, effectively converting gravitational potential energy into kinetic energy for the rock and the weight. But, since the rock is smaller.. it is propelled at a much faster velocity! Let's say we wanted to hurl a 50 kg boulder at a castle wall 100 meters away. Our wooden structure for the trebuchet is 10 meters tall, so that is the maximum distance the counterweight can fall. Assuming the launch angle is a perfect 45 degrees, and the boulder is released from ground level, derive the needed mass of the counterweight that will give the boulder enough kinetic energy to reach the base of the castle walls. You may assume no energy is "lost" due to friction, and ALL the counterweight's gravitational potential energy is converted into the boulder's kinetic enerqy. (HINT: You will need to employ 2D kinematics to find the needed final velocity, then use that final velocity in an energy equation…
